Describe the moment you lost faith in Romo

[Doomsday]

A little above average? Do you even watch the NFL? Look around the league. There might be 5 better QBs out there.

Talk to his peers, other NFL players who never had him in the top 100 players, until this year where he comes in at #71 and with a buttload of quarterbacks ahead of him including Nick Foles. FOLES will win a SB before Romo ever does. In today's game and today's rules, 300 yard games are common. It's getting to where it's ho-hum. The dude is breaking Dallas team records for passing. A team that has never really been that much known for lighting it up. Get back to me when Romo is breaking real passing records - like maybe, some of Marinos?

He's average.

He's just one of the best the league has had in the last 8-10 years.

No, he's not.

The NFL players have Romo as the #12 QB. Out of 32, not too bad. A little above #16. A little above average, run of the mill.

Where do they have bill bates ranked? Not good enough for the roh? Oh

Romo's ahead of Marino's pace in every category. Tds, yards, and completion percentage. Marino's WRs must have had to stop and turn a lot.

Romo has played in 114 games to Marino's 242. You think Romo's back holds up another 130 games? Highly doubtful.

I guess if that's what you want to hang your hat on. I'd be more interested in a poll that reflected what coaches and coordinators think.

 

[Sheik]

So you don't have to do the quick math.

Per game stats:

Romo TD per game- 1.82
Marino-1.73

Romo ypg- 259.3
Marino- 253.5

Romo completion% per game- 64.6
Marino- 59.4

And I'd be the first to admit Marino is the best pure passer ever. But Jesus, an average at best QB is making it look easy.

GAME. SET. MATCH

I'm not sure they're the most impartial of observers. They harbor hatreds and biases just like the rest of us.

Exact reason the probowl is a joke.

Oops. It's actually 136 games for Romo. Hope that fact doesn't mess up your quick math I'll now let you do again.

But I trust the actual players more than I would any group of fans. The fact is, his peers just aren't all that impressed with him.

Should be right up your wheelhouse then.

 

[Doomsday]

I stand corrected. Romo HAS beaten Dan Marino in one category - fumbles lost. 23-19 and he's not done yet!

 

[Rock Slamdance]

Wow. Just...wow.

 

[Doomsday]

Wow. Just...wow.

I know, I never dreamed Romo would actually beat one of Marino's stats.

No shit.
